Grandma Martha's Legacy
A song made by Mthobisi Silinda
Oh, thank You Lord for the strength of a mother
This is for you, Grandma Martha, yes Lord
Down by the river, you held my hand
Grandma Martha, you taught me how to stand
Cast the net wide, catch the fish of the day
But you were teaching me how to find my way
Through the valleys, you taught me to survive
With faith in my heart, keeping hope alive
You said, "Gegae, respect the elders and the Lord"
And He will guide your steps, He is your reward
Oh, Martha, I miss your sweet grace
You showed me how to run this earthly race
Taught me to be a man of truth and love
Now you're watching over me from up above
Hallelujah, amen, your legacy remains
Through the joy and through the pain
You prayed for me through the darkest night
Told me to walk in the Savior's light
To be a better man, choose the righteous path
You shielded me from the world's cold wrath
Every lesson you taught, I hold it deep inside
With Jesus as my anchor and your spirit as my guide
Oh, Martha, I miss your sweet grace
You showed me how to run this earthly race
Taught me to be a man of truth and love
Now you're watching over me from up above
Hallelujah, amen, your legacy remains
Through the joy and through the pain
Praise Him, thank You Jesus for Grandma Martha
Your lessons live on, Gegae will stand strong
Amen, yes Lord, amen
